We document the problems that we find and periodically upload them to the website.We hope that this will educate and encourage the public to purchase Tefillin and Mezuzos only from a reputable source, and to have their Mezuzos and Tefillin checked regularly.

The number one reason why I tell people not to buy a Mezuzah in a Jewish museum gift shop or even a Judaica store. The Mezuzahs are almost always very poor quality. And more often then not blatantly not Kosher. A Mezuzah is not to be compared to a Menorah or a Seder plate, who can blame a untrained sales clerk or Judaica owner from knowing any better. A Mezuzah is a specialty item and must be very specific and accurate to be Kosher and therefore must be purchased from a certified trained Sofer.​How many letters in this Mezuzah can you actually decipher?
